Government Report: Christianity Extinct By 2067

A new governmental report on Christianity is making some waves, though, according to the report, not as many waves as one might think...

(Inquistr) The core of the report is that Christianity, once the religion that
wasn’t to be trifled with, is quickly on the decline, and at a much faster rate
than anyone really thought. Christianity is declining so quickly that experts
believe the religion will be “statistically nonexistent” by 2067 — or, in other
words, extinct.

The report that leads to a prediction of Christianity’s demise stems from the
British Census Study, the British Social Attitudes survey, and the British
Election Study. Though the report on Christianity centers on Great Britain,
experts say that Christians would be naive to think that the United States isn’t
far behind, and offers evidence and statistics to back up their predictions.

According to the statistics, between 2001 and 2011, the number of people who
followed Christianity fell by over 5.3 million people. To put that on a
timescale, that’s about 10,000 individuals per week forsaking Christianity.
Following up on those stats, Christianity will fall to nonexistence in England
in the year 2067...
